Yes to both. The USB 3.0 is the best part about this stand. It is faster and more reliable than other usb hubs I have owned.

I've never charged an ipad but I have charged my phone and nexus tablet. It is a powered usb device so it shouldn't have a problem charging anything.

Yes anything with a usb at the end. Would recommend a higher amp wall adapter for the ipad

Yes it can charge ipads. However, mine only charges it halfway before it runs out of power.

It can only be charged by USB.... AC Charger (with USB plug) is a lot quicker though.. It works great... charges my ipad about 2.5 times

This external drive uses USB for an interface. iPads do not include USB ports. So this will not work with Apple's mobile devices (iPhone, iPod, iPad). There are other storage products that include built-in wireless access, and an iPad can connect using its WiFi. The only catch is that most of these solutions require installing an iOS app to access the content on the storage device.

No. Ipad generally doesn't come with USB port. What is more, you need to install the driver software to acquire images. I have a windows laptop for this purpose.

usb supplies 500mA but iPad consumes more than 500mA. iPad can be charged but very slow. That is why they say it is not "compatible"

I'm using an ipad2 and what I found is that the usb hub does charge it but I have to power it down.

No you cannot. I just tried to connect my iPad and it indicated "Not Charging".The email I received from the manufacturer following my purchase from Amazon explained that one could not use this particular hub as a source for charging.

it won't work with my ipad at all. The only use I get out of it is as a regular USB drive on my computer.

First off the USB plug is not compatible with the ipad charging port. If you have an adapter for the usb keypad to the ipad port it might. Haven't tried it. I have some adapters and might give it a try later.

You would use Apple's Camera Connector Kit, which plus in to the dock connector on the bottom of the iPad (1-3 models) and then provides a USB port. This would hook up to that, and is it doesn't take too much power, it may work. I have plugged up USB keyboards to the iPad that way, but never an adapter. The iPad USB port has limited power, so if this adapter draws too much, it will not work. In that case, you would plug a powered USB hub (that plugs in to wall power) in to the camera connector kit, then plug this in to that. I have not tested that, but I have plugged up USB joysticks and such to an adapter I built in to the USB port on the iPad just fine.

USB. 120-160 mA. You can connect in to any computer with USB port or for example, to iPad via camera connection kit. Caveat: iPad will refuse to power it directly, but putting cheap tiny USB hub in between resolved the problem for me.

We have a USB female adapter - so you can power an iPad. This is available also as a kit - see WS-POE-USB-Kit for iPad or Tablet, Remote USB Charger Via PoE Ethernet Cable up To 328 Feet With 5 Volts 10 Watts and Female USB

The maximum output current of this USB port is 1500mA (I know because I measured it) although Monster web site says 1000mA. So it will charge up your iPad slowly even if the iPad is on.
